    Only the rich in the US get an actual education and like you said the freedom to learn. Meanwhile our regular school system teaches you to be a good obedient listener, pass all your grades and you’ll get a good 9-5 job in the end.

      I didn’t realize you wanted credentials to AVOID WORK
      I thought you wanted knowledge TO WORK . I was confused

      @Mike Pict I really get where your coming from but you are missing the point. How does algebra help you in most jobs? I agree School should teach you how to prepare for the workforce but a part of that is encouraging creativity. Privilege is a huge factor for example, I am extremely lucky to be able to go to a private school that does more research based projects like in this Ted talk. The more money someone has to more resources they have.

      @Anne Autisms you don’t know because your not a plumber or a carpenter. I’d explain it to you but I have a job to do and children that depend on me . Look it up on your own or get an apprenticeship with a master

      @Anne Autisms Uh, excuse me? algebra teaches you a certain way of thinking about the world more rationally. You’re saying that we need schools that let people think for themselves, but teaching people a totally new way to think is a bad thing? Additionally, it is actually used for plenty of jobs. Any STEM job requires algebra, and a lot of jobs outside of stem either require or could certainly benefit a lot from a knowledge and thorough understanding of algebra.

    Academic freedom sounds delicious. This is a bigger undertaking than is mentioned. It is sad that parents are totally left out of this conversation. Parents are the child’s first teacher so they need way more support/praise/guidance than this culture is willing to acknowledge.

    I’m a teaching assistant in the Uk and I couldn’t agree more, our education system is poorly structured, underfunded and not accessible for students from disadvantage backgrounds or with special educational needs. We need less “sit down shut up” and more “what is your opinion?”, let’s create passion and confidence in our next generation.

    The school system was set up to do just what it does , teach us to work in factories 9-5 providing a living for us and riches for those that own the factories.
    Now that we don’t have any factories, we’re not preparing for anything. Now for those that say , you have the ability to learn what you want in order to improve your lot, it sounds so easy. However, as a teenager or younger, you don’t know what’s available let alone how to find a way to get it. This is adult thinking not child thinking. Without adult help and guidance we don’t even know what to ask let alone that we’re supposed to be asking. Than add onto this the aches and pains of just growing up ,ha . Oh by the way the adults who are to guide us have gone through the same education system so truly, what do they know?
    The lecture was given by a very intelligent and grounded women. She’s coming at it from a different view ,not a teacher’s view of this is the curriculum I’m Toledo to follow if I want to keep my job.

    Academic Risks. This is a great mention. Maybe cultural difference (or economical / political aka philosophical difference), everyone in Asia never dare to risk that. In worse, the parenting is also treat children as a “property of parents” instead of individual, and when they go collaborating while globalisation, bam, “their maths is good”.

    It’s always so easy to talk about what’s the best way to teach… The truth is, this method of teaching and adaptation of the professor requires competent individuals who are willing to work hard for their student’s future. And there’s the problem; working hard. Even though I believe most teachers care about their students, they just don’t want to do any extra work. After all, salaries are barely enough in most countries.
    I would’ve appreciated it if what you’ve preached on this TED talk was tested on several clases, with control groups, and then evaluated how much each of them learned. A more scientific approach would better help understand and evaluate the current situation. Otherwise, these are just empty words.
    Hate to say it, but you reminded me of the saying: “those who can, do; those who can’t, teach”

How much should we invest in teachers, and what should new investment actually involve? Education innovator Randy Seriguchi Jr. suggests the US should create a “G.I. Bill” for teachers, with a particular emphasis on uplifting Black male professionals. He shares a model of this idea in action through community partnerships in San Francisco, which provide aspiring teachers with graduate school tuition, subsidized housing, personalized fit assessments and more. “If we truly want to elevate this profession to inspire new, diverse talent to join us, we have to improve both the personal and professional experiences associated with teaching,” says Seriguchi.
